And not a error from being banged around for 79 years need your input and please study the photos as I have. I also added a photo that shoes a penny with a regular E Report this Post to the Staff

Dearborn Moderator United States 95432 Posts	Posted 04/22/2024 10:19 am If you look at it the other way, it looks like a 'W' just a matter of perspective.. Collecting since 1972.

Cujohn Pillar of the Community United States 7174 Posts	Posted 04/22/2024 7:42 pm to the CCF diamonds, This is as others have said circulation flattening. The only thing Stamped on a coin is the mint mark, up until about 1990. Everything else is machined into dies that make working dies that make the coin. If it was a M turned 90%, there would be thousands of them made, they would all be the same not just one. Stick around, learn how coins are made, then you will know what an error or variety is.
